The gure 2000B is an all cast stainless steel body
and yoke with investment cast packing follower.
Reminiscent of high performance buttery valves that
utilize a retaining ring to secure the valve seat, the dual
seat, bidirectional shut-off of the 2000B is a unique
design that performs in many applications not typical of
knife gate valves.

Seat Ring
The FNW gure 2000B utilizes a seating design that provides positive
shut-off in both directions, even at low pressure differentials. Similar
to high performance buttery valve designs, the gure 2000B uses
mechanically retained seat rings to hold the seats in place. The RTFE
seats are carried on the retainer rings and are pre-compressed with
o-rings to provide sealing pressure against the knife blade. These o-rings
also act as the seal between the body and seat rings. Seat material
can easily be replaced without disturbing the valve packing. This seat
conguration also improves the longevity of the seat as it is not directly in
the ow path.
Seat Rings
Made of RTFE, the seat rings are secured in place by an integral locator
lip around its circumference, tted into the valve body. Dual rings insure
shut-off in both directions.
Seat Ring O-Ring
Behind each seat ring is a hefty EPDM o-ring. This o-ring not only
provides sealing, but also maintains pressure behind the seat ring,
ensuring a tight shut-off.
Retainer Ring
Holding the seat rings and o-rings in place are the retainer rings. These
heavy stainless steel rings make replacing the seats and o-ring quick and
easy.
